  3. 2. Experimental Traumatic Brain Injury and Cell Death - in vivo and in vitro aspects

    Författare :Gustav Mattiasson; Sektion IV; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurofysiologi; neuropsychology; Neurology; uncoupling protein; mitochondrial permeability transition; cerebral blood flow; functional outcome; cell death; mitochondria; hippocampus; preconditioning; trauma; Brain; ischemia; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; neurophysiology;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic and ischemic brain damage are major causes of disability and death. While much effort has been spent on developing pharmacological treatments for these conditions, no neuroprotective drugs are in clinical use. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Brain Tissue Oxygenation in Traumatic Brain Injury : Experimental and Clinical Studies

    Författare :Karlis Purins; Anders Lewén; Per Enblad; Oliver Sakowitz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Brain tissue oxygenation; Cerebral metabolism; Traumatic brain injury; Cerebral ischemia; Threshold levels; Neurovent-PTO; Microdialysis; Neurosurgery; Neurokirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability. TBI is frequently followed by cerebral ischemia which is a great contributor to secondary brain damage. The main causes of cerebral ischemia are pathophysiological changes in cerebral blood flow and metabolism. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Ischemic Tolerance and Cell Signaling in the Rat Brain

    Författare :Mehrdad Shamloo; Lund Wallenberg Neurocentrum; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; preconditioning; cell death; tyrosine phosphorylation; tolerance; ERK; Calpain; CaMKII; PKC; protection; Brain; ischemia; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : A brief period of sublethal ischemia in the brain induces resistance to a subsequent, otherwise lethal ischemic insult. This phenomenon is known as ischemic tolerance or preconditioning. A model of ischemic preconditioning in the rat brain using the two-vessel occlusion model of global cerebral ischemia was established. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Caspase-dependent and caspase-independent neuronal injury in the developing brain

    Författare :Changlian Zhu; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :hypoxia ischemia; neonatal; cell death; caspase; apoptosis-inducing factor; brain; apoptosis; autophagy; nitric oxide;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To investigate the mechanisms of neuronal cell death after hypoxia-ischemia in the developing brain.Methods: Rats or mice were subjected to left common carotid artery ligation plus hypoxia. Animals were sacrificed at certain time points after hypoxia-ischemia. LÄS MER
